    500 - fairly poor. New ground for most and all that, I was expecting more. Mind you - no train options and midweek....................

    See you tomorrow.

    this is the info that southend got on the chesterfield board :

    "There a lot of good pubs in the town depends what you like. You'll be welcome pretty much anywhere. Barracuda, Portland (Wetherspoons), Spa Lane Vaults (Wetherspoons), Chandlers, anywhere on Saltergate. The two designated 'away' pubs are the Chesterfield Arms and The Industry which are behind the away end."

    Suzi - I was waiting for you to chime in :-)

    We will see if we can get to the M25 before a wee stop this time.

    I understand that Tavern has got GPS so will not be needing directions from me and curb it.

    lol.

    i might try to get one on my way home. i get a new set every year, but always lose em or go off them.
  • I'm going really looking foward to it.
    A chesterfield mate of fine says the Chesterfield arms is probably the best bet. Aparantly the home pubs have bouncers for most games so i'd assume they'd be pretty much a no go.
  • couple of weatherspoons in the city centre are meant to be ok probably head to the one near the smaller market square

    now that i can't go....

    .... i hope its freezing !!!
  • really looking forward to this one, what with our current form. should be a great atmosphere. maybe almost full. come on lads get yourselves up there. we need a few more for warmth. i'm in sheffield at the mo and it's brass monkeys. almost a frost. maybe see some of you in one of the locals, maybe chesterfield arms. i'll be the one in cafc shirt, maybe i'll stand out if there aren't that many going.

    bring em on.
